I’ll be honest. I’ve been avoiding this tea. Why? Because it is awesome. No really. I just don’t have a lot of this tea and it is just gorgeous, so I’ve tried to save it for when I can really appreciate it. Soft and earthy, it’s on the delicate side for a Yunnan. But it’s got such a great flavor. Sweet potato and brown sugar and fruit and dark honey-ish tastes swirl around on top of the gently earthy Yunnan base note. This is a tea that I have to make sure I have time to taste properly because there is so much wondefulness going on that I don’t want to miss it. I just want to sip it and stare at the wall, appreciating the flavors. 2.6g/6oz

Preparation

oh no! I added this to my shopping list! But you and the other posters on this tea make it sound sooooo goooood! I’ve been trying to be good and not buy/envy/desire any more new teas for now (too many untasted in my cupboard). But on the other hand, I do drink a lot of tea … and that DOES require a nice steady supply of tea in the house..!
